This Week’s Quote – No Transformation Necessary?
Leadership Journal’s online blog Out of Ur recently ran this quote from Dallas Willard, which I found intriguing: “We fail to be disciples only because we do not decide to be. We do not intend to be disciples.” —————————– To read what Dave Johnson, senior pastor of Church of the Open Door in Maple Grove, [...]

Fishdance Pottery
As some of you know, I am an amateur potter. Below are two pictures of some of my work. In an effort to spur my getting behind the pottery wheel once again, I am adding a page to my blog to highlight my work. If you are interested in ordering some pottery, please contact me at the [...]
UK Basketball and Tubby Smith
Most people outside of the state of Kentucky probably do not understand (and perhaps they don’t want to) the importance of basketball to University of Kentucky fans. Having been bred and born in Kentucky and having lived my first 25 years there, I can personally attest to the power and draw that UK basketball has [...]

Photoblog: Day 6 of My Trip – Part 3
A couple of pictures I neglected to put on yesterday’s photoblog include one of the Bruckheimer’s farm. It is difficult to get a picture of their house, so below you will see a photo of the surrounding fields, which includes a barn-like structure in the distance that houses their own private ice-skating rink. I also [...]
Photoblog: Day 6 of My Trip – Part 2

After taking some sunrise pictures on Sunday, I went back to Bloomfield, KY (my hometown where my mom still lives) and took some pictures of the downtown. [...]
Photoblog: Day 6 of My Trip – Part 1
This is the day I crossed back into the land of my youth: Kentucky. Every time I come back home, I am filled with such powerful and conflicting emotions. They are difficult to describe, but I will try to do so in a later post after I return home sometime on Tuesday night or Wednesday [...]
Photoblog: Day 5 of My Trip
Today began with my saying goodbye to my friend Mark and his wife Jane. I thank them again for their kindness and hospitality in housing me these past three days. Mark, however, was quite the pain in his insistence on paying for everything. Thanks again for that as well Mark, and you’ll get yours if [...]
Photoblog: Day 4 of My Trip, Part 2
I arrived at Thinspace’s Feast of St. Patrick “gig” last night at around 5 pm. As one of the first travelers to arrive, I got a chance to wonder around and look at the amazing space that Vineyard Central bought from the Catholic church about 12 years ago. St. Elizabeth’s is a beautiful place as [...]
